Because the US plans a permanent ruling presence there but knows they will need massive defenses against a hostile populace, so all comforts are provided in order than embassy staff will not have to interact very often or very much with the citizens.

Granny, the whole Green Zone concept is a total disgrace!
they should call it clubmed baghdad. It's like in Seoul Korea! the US set up a base downtown during the korea war AND NEVER LEFT! like with the greenzone, the property annexed by the US military in korea is PRIME DOWNTOWN realestate.
if i were an iraqi, i'd resent the american presence by now to be sure....
shame on us.
p.s. granny, i took off my word verification thing.
